FOREWORD.

"";;

THE many patrons of the Garda III sport will be glad to know that,encouraged by the splendid success of the 1926 Aonach, the CoisteSiainsa, hope to make this great Garda Festival an annual event.

Our most sanguine expectations were realized last year, and in expressingthe gratitude of the Force to all those who co-operated with us so cheerfully,may I again hope Ior generous support and patronage for this year's functions.

The organisation of the series of events outlined in the five days programmeis an ambitious venture, rendered more difficult this year owing to the necessityfor transferring' the entire Depot Reserve for Election duty in the various countiesduring the period when trainmg and preparation was most essential, particularlyin fire drill, first aid, gymnastics, music, etc.

Notwithstanding the constant call of duty-s-efficiently and thoroughly per-formed-the Garda, bearing always in mind that " what is worth doing at all isworth doing \I" ell , " have not "spared themselves in the promotion of athletics andgames in general. In this they can always rely on my support, for I realize that\-\lehave in the Garda the most promising source of hope for the future of athletics,and, apart from the national aspect, participation in games engenders a spiritof self-reliance, manliness, high courage, abstinence, perseverance, and otherattributes essential to the well-being of any body of young men.

Our efforts have been criticised, and our purpose has been misrepresented, butnow that the governing bodies have shown in no uncertain manner their appre-ciation of the fine sporting qualities of the Garda, 1 hope the temporary set-backwill be overcome.

On the occasion of his recent visit to the Depot, His Grace the Archbishop ofCashel said :-" I am glad to see the Garda taking such an interest in the garlles,they are an example to the rest of the country in fostering Irish athletics." \\"eshould feel proud of this great tribute from the distinguished successor of Dr.Croke.

During the Aonach, three members of the Force will be, decorated with medalsfor valour, and a tablet will be unveiled in proud meniory of our heroic comradeswho made the supreme sacrifice in defence of our people's rights.

I am particularly glad to say that the Language Competitions, Aer idheachtand Ceilidhe promise to eclipse those of last year, and I again exhort the Force,if exhortation be necessary, to continue their good work individually and collec-tively in furtherance of the Language," which, above all, is the foundation ofnational culture.

In conclusion, I wish to express my appreciation of the remarkable work beingdone, Hot only for the Garda but for the State, by the Coisie Siain sa. It is chargedwith a great trust, and I hope it will be rewarded by a successful Aonach underthe most favourable conditions.

Blessed with youth and health in a measure which oui.st.e-ps all other or g anisa-tions , the Gardai enters upon this great festival in the hope of still furtheringgood, honest, clean and manly sport throughout the country, and thereby adominister the necessa'ry tonic to Irish pastillles in general.

If 7.C!eare to accept the success of last yelu's Aonach as being indicative ofwhat Aonach an Gliarda, 1927 will be, then the promote'rs of this athletic festivalneed entertain no doubts as to the result, and the general public, whose interestslire the sole objective of the Committee may once more be assured of luuuing theirinterests in all [ornis of Notional Athletics well catered. for. The benefits, [rorn.the athletic point of tnetn, arising out of last yea'y's ilonach, are not all apparent.tit so much as the numerous successes registered throughout the country in theiuterual, are ILOt placed directly to the credit of the Garda.

Athletics,THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS.-GARDAI FIGURE PROMINENTLY

IN FINALS.

;;;

;;;

THE National Championships at Croke Park on the 26th and 27th June,1926, resulted in the Gardai maintaining and in some instances improvingupon, their previous performances. Space allows only of a very brief

summary. Bermingham defended and sustained his title in slinging the half-hundredweight, and second and third fell to Gardai Kennedy (Enniscorthy) andGore (Dublin). Bermingham and Byrne tied for second place in the 16 lb. hammercompetition. Connor was unable to hold his place in the long jump, victory goingto R. J. Cussen, with Shanahan (G.S.) and Maloney (G.S.) second and thirdrespectively. Shanahan gave a wonderful all-round display, and his performancein the hurdles caused intense excitement, as he and Price (Belfast Univ.) racedneck and neck, the Northern, however, beating our representative in the last lap.Shanahan fought hard for honours in every event, but had to be content withsecond place in the javelin and high jump competitions also. Few, however, willdispute his superiority as an all-round athlete. Gardai Healy and Daly occupiedsecond and third places in the 16 lb. shot-Colhoun (Ulsterville H.) securing thehonours in the absence of the holder, O'Grady.

L. Stanley (holder) did not defend in the high jump, and the laurels passed toGardai O'Connor (6 ft. 2 ins.), and Shanahan (6 ft. 1 in.). Bermingham (holder)retained his position in the discus competition, two colleagues taking second andthird, Gardai Healy and Gore. Bermingham also successfully defended his titlein the 56 lb. over bar contest.

In the cycling events, Sergeant Lynn annexed the one mile championship, andhe was second to the holder, N. Donnelly, in the quarter mile championship. GardaT. Kelly secured second place in the five mile cycle, which was won by B. J.Donnelly. Kelly ha s a penchant for second places, but his love for this positionwill, we believe, be soon transformed, or be ,<, secondary to first." Garda W. J.Maloney secured first place in the running hop, step and jump, and third in thelong' jump-excellent honours for his first appearance in championship events.Good judges predict that with training he should secure the title for the latterevent also. M. Gregan seconded Sean Lavan in the quarter, and was the latter'sstrongest opponent throughout.

There is much reason to be proud of the performances of our representativesin every sphere-even where they did not secure the titles they g-ave magnificentexhibitions of athletic prowess. The intense rivalry occasioned by the NationalChampionships will find an outlet during- Garda Week.

Prowess In the Athletic Arena

GARDA VICTORIES DURING 1926

THE list of championships, medals, firstprizes and other notable awards won ?ythe Guards during the 1926 season would,

if given here in derail, monopolise more sp~cethan is permitted, so that we are necessarilyconfined to giving but a short sum!llary of thesuccesses registered for .that period by themore prominent athletes. A limited analysisof the various awards and placings shows thatwith the discus P. J. Bermingham is still" outon his own" in so much as he still retains histitle of Iri~h and British Champion and Irish" 56" Champion, having successfully disposedof all who aspired to acquire (hose much-coveted distinctions during the season. AtTralee Sports last year he threw the "56"(from stand without follow) a distance of 27~t.Iin., and later in the same year at Sports 111

Clare, he established a new record for thediscus throw.

W. Shanahan, the well-known runner andhigh jumper, has, as a result of the yariouscompetitions in which he took part durmg the1926 season added the following successes tohis already brilliant record: Won the LeinsterHigh Jump Championship, and in additionhad the distinction of being runner-up in fourIrish Championships, viz :-High and LongJump, Hurdles and Javelin. He tied for 1stplace in High Jump at Triangular Sports (In-ternational) at Glasgow last year. It wouldnot be amiss to mention here that amongstShanahan's previous successes he wqn theNational 120 Yards Hurdles Championship in17 secs., and was second to Stanley in the HighJump.

On the Cycling track, Sergt. Michael Lynnhas successfully maintained his previous bril-liant record by the following achievementsduring 1926 :-Secured second place in theQuarter-Mile National Championships andsecond place in the One Mile Leinster Cham-pionship; he holds the Ten ~ile National Cha.m-pionship, as well as the Five and ?ne MIle.In addition he holds the Three MIle Cham-pionship of' Leinster, the One ~ile qhampion-ship of Cormaught and the FIVe Mile Cham-

pionship of Connaught. His other successesfor 1926 include the Oounty Dublin One Mileand Ten Mile Championship, together with theOne Mile and Three Mile State Inter-ServiceChampionships. His previous record is dealtwith at greater length elsewhere in this pro-gramme.

Guard Kelly. At Glasgow, .this well-knowncyclist won the Three Mile Cycle Invitationevent; at New Brighton he was second in theFive Mile Scratch; in the Irish Cycle Cham-pionship he was second in the Mile event, ~ndthird in the Quarter Mile Leinster Champion-ships. In 1926 he added the following suc-cesses to his record :-Second in the One MileConnaught Championship; second in the FiveMiles Connaught Championship; second in theFive Miles and One Mile County DublinChampionships; first in the Three Miles C~lD-naught Championship; first in the Three MIlesHandicap at Ballinasloe, and second in the FiveMiles Handicap at the same venue; first in theFive Miles Handicap at Wexford, and first inthe Half-Mile Handicap at Garda Sports.

Yet another well-known, .Guard Batt, O'Con-nor ha~ during the 1926 season, brought ad-.ditioual 'honours to the Garda Athletic Club.His total successes for 1926 are 32 firsts, 16seconds and 8 thirds. The following are someof the more important events in which hecompeted :-Won the Half-Mile Championshipand Four Miles Championship of Leinster;secured four seconds in Leinster Champion-ships, lap prize and third in Five Miles Na-tional Championships; the One, Two, Three,Four and Five Mile Motor-paced Records ofIreland: won the Three Miles Scratch at Clon-mel; the Five Miles Scratch at Castlebar;Three Miles Scratch at Cork, Donegal andCarlow and was second in the Sibbit Invita-tion Q~larter-Mile Scratch at Clonliffe.

At Abbeyleix, in August of last year, GardaCon Connor jumped 6ft. 5tins. and added yetanother Irish record to (hose already in pos-session of the Garda.

IRISH RECORDS COMPARED WITH THOSE OF FOREIGNCOUNTRIES

On this the second Aona,ch an Gliarda it is fitting to 'review b1'iefly how Irisli athletesMe progressing, and how we com-pare with Lnternational stomdards.

SPRINTERS.A feature at the recent A.A.A. Champion-

ships (which may be regarded as EuropeanChampionships) was the display of the Ger-man entrants. Several returned excellenttimes, such as Bucher, Leipzig, 10 I-5th secs;Konig, Breslau, 10 secs; R. Corts (Stuggart),German Champion, 9 4-5th secs. The finalresults were C011ts; London (Polytechnic) ;Konig. Won by half a yard in 10 secs.

The following are the times for this eventtaken from meetings in various countries:-

Ireland-lO I-5th seconds.Oxford and Cambridge--lO seconds.U.S.A. (Inter-College)-9 9-10th seconds.South Africa-lO I-5th seconds.Drake, U.S.A.-9t seconds.

In the last professional sprint world's cham-pionship, Applegarth won in 9 9-lOth seconds;Donaldson, in South Africa, returned the timeof 9 3-8 seconds.

In last year's Irish Championship D. J.Cussen won in 10 seconds, This year Lavinand Eustace shared the title in 10 I-5th secs,The latter is a young sprinter who shoulddevelop a 10 seconds standard,

In the 220 Yards alt the A.A.A. meetingButler (who ran 4th in the 400 metres at theOlympic Games) won in 21 9-10th seconds fromthe German, Bucher, Porritt, New Zealand,being third.

The following are times taken from variousimportant meetinge r+-

Irish Inter- University-23 seconds,U.S.A., Inter-College--20 9-10th seconds,South Africa-22 2-5th seconds.A.A.A-21 9-10th seconds.

Jot! the Irish Championships Lavin was notextended, and could have done much bettertime. * * * * *...

440 YARDS.Ait the A.A.A. Championships, Rinkel, of

the Achilles Club, won in 49 4-5th seconds bya yard from the German, Dr. Peltzer.

The following are other times for the purposeof companson r-e-

Irish Charnpionships-52 2-5th seconds.South of England-49 4-5th seconds.Oxford and Camhridge--50 4-5th seconds.South Africa-49 3-5th seconds.Cambridge v, A.A.A,-50 I-5th seconds.U.S,A" Inter-College-48 2-10 seconds.Lavin, in handicap race, clocked 50 seconds,

on a course which was found to be over thedistance, In this event Lavin is well ~n Inter-national ranks, and is capable of getting underthe 50 seconds.

* * * * *In the 880 Yards at the A.A.A. Cham-

pionships, Dr. Peltzer defeated Lowe, theOlympic runner, by 3 yards ~n the wonderfultime of 1 minute 51 3-5th seconds, which is aworld's record.

The following are times of other importantmeetings:

Irish Championships-l min. 58 2-5th secs.U.f:(,A.-l min. 51 7-10th seconds.Scottish University-s-S mins. 1 sec.South Africa-l min. 59 seconds.Cambridge v. A.A.A,-J min. 55 4-5 secs.South of England-l min. 58 4-5th secs.In this even't, we have two very good ha] f-

milers in McEachem and Coughlin, and bothare up to the average International standard.

* * * * *THE MILE.

. The best Internaticnal standard for this dis-tance in 1926 was the performance of Baraton(Paris) at .ths A.A.A. Championships, in whichhe defeated Booker, of Leipzig, by a yard ill

.4 mins. 17 2-oth secs. Other times are:-

Irish Championships-4 mins. 24 I-5th secs.English Midlands-4 mins. 26 secs.Cambridge v. A,A.A.-4 mins, 27 secs.South Africa-4 mins. 31 2-5th secs.South of England-4 mins. 28 I-5th secs.U.S.A. Inter-College-e-t mins. 22 5-lOth secs,A,A.A.-4 mins. 17 2-5th secs.In this event Coard, the present Irish cham-

pion, is well up to International standard, andif extended, could undoubtedly clip severalrecords from his championship tIme.

In this event Berrningham is a new aspirant,and is reaching over 140ft. He is still im-clined to cramp his arms, but once he mastersswinging the hammer at full arms' length heshould reach well over 160ft. His possibilitiesin ithis event are such that we may hope torecover many of our laurels in this essentiallyIrish event. If our present champion, Brittoci,had more avoirdupois he would reach first-class distances, as his style and action areperfect.

SHOT.In this, which is a characteristically Irish

event, we have fallen short of our previousbest, the Irish Championship being won by anextremely moderate putt of 42ft. 5iins. Forthe purpose of eornparisoo other results aregrven :-

O'Grady, Limerick, should, if he developedactivity and style, reach the vicinity of 50ft.He was absent through illness at thc lastChampionship. His best putt" was 46ft. 7ins.,done ill practice. A young Guard, Healy, pro-

mises well, havi ng reached 43ft. (ii ns. at theDublin Championships, and when he increasesin weight and strength should prove useful.

* * * * *DISCUS.

If! this event we are well in Luterna tionalclass, P. J. Bermingham, of the Garda, win-ning the title at the A.A.A Championshipswith 142ft 4ins., Askildt (Norway] and Hoff-meister (Germany) being second and thirdwith 139ft. 3ins. and 135ft. 6tins., respectively.Bermingham has consistently improved, andhas added lOft. per season to bis throwingaverage. He is capable of over 150 feet, andwhile in practice at the Olympic Games inParis reached and passed this figure regularly.

* * * * *POLE JUMP.

The following are some of the best results ofthe year:-

A.A.A. Championship-12 feet.Inter-College, U.S.A.-13ft. 3ins.

Hoff, the Olympic champion, averages about13ft. Sins. In this event we fall far belowthe best International standards.

The results given above provide Irishathletes with standards to work to, and shouldprevent them being satisfied with moderateresults. In field eVE;'1'ts, especially, Lrisnrnenhave taught the world the secrets of theseevents and the pupils have now become mas-ters. Can it be hoped that with- a new in-terest taken in athletics at present in Irelandthat we shall win back some of our laurelsat the next Olympic Games? To do so willneed unremitting study of -aew styles, hard andconsistent training. Our Irish athletes shouldrise to the occasion, and follow the example ofanother small country, Finland, who broughtmuch honour and glory to their flag by theirathletic successes at the last two OlympicGames.

Michael Collins and theMaking of a New Ireland

By PIARAS BEASLAiLate Major-Gen. Irish National. Army

1916-1922THAT short period of six years was one of the most romantic and most critical in the history of Ireland.

During those stormy, strenuous days there emerged many noble personalities, fearless fighters and ablepoliticians but none of them played a nobler or a more heroic part than

MICHAEL COLLlNS.

MICHAEL COLLINS AND THE MAKING OF A NEW IRELAND is the official biography of a greatso..dier-statesman and the first authentic hist ory of the rebirth of a nation; written with inner know-ledge by an intimate friend and comrade-in-arms who served with Collins on Headquarters Staff and

who shared in many of his amazing adventures and hair-breadth escapes. Private papers and officialdocumentswere placed at the author's disposal, and many of these are

NOW PUBLISHED FOR THE FIRST TIME.

WHILE justifying the attitude of Michael Collins towards the Treaty, Mr. Beaslai writes in

NO PARTISAN SPIRIT.He has availed himself of advice and assistance, not only from members of the Free State Government butfrom many who opposed the signing of the Treaty, and by giving due consideration to different points ofview the author makes the book all the more valuable.

THE work is not only an interesting biography-it is a detailed and vivid account of the most remarkableand successful National effort in the whole course of Irish history, and .

THE SECRET WORKINGSof an epoch-making movement are now revealed to the public, The I.R.B., the Gaelic League, Sinn Fein,the Volunteers, Easter Week, Anti-Conscription, the Treaty Negotiations are all dealt with, and startling details-are given. It is the standard record of a great national movement, and while many names are prominentthere are repeated references to the rank and file who nobly played their part in the struggle for freedom.

ITis a book of international importance, and already, orders have been received from different part o~ theworld, but its special appeal is to all Irishmen and Irishwomen who love their country, and no private

bookcase in Ireland will be complete without a copy of this great work.MICHAEL COLLINS AND THE MAKING OF A NEW IRELAND

is published in two large handsome volumes, size, 9-ins x 6~-in., beautifully bound in sage green cloth, gilt,.with a medallion photograph of the late General embossed in gold on each volume. The illustrations includestwo Portraits in full colour by Sir John Lavery, R.A., facsimile reproductions of private letters and officialdocuments, authentic portraits of those who figured in the great drama, and pictures of various scenes andincidents.

SOUVENIR PROGRAMME.

Swimming

THOUGH still in its infancy, the GardaSwimming Club is making steady pro-gress. Since the opening of the season

of 1927 numbers of inquiries have been receivedfrom prospective swimmers, and an increasein attendance at the Iveagh Baths is noticedeach Friday when the Club meets for practicefrom 12 noon until 1 p.m.

One of the reasons for the increased interestis that the services of an Instructor have beenobtained to teach the best methods of SWIm-

ming, including the "cra,,,l," which is, ofcourse, the fastest stroke of all.

There is no reason why the Garda shouldnot excel in aquatic sports just as in otherarenas. Facilities for swimming exist in everycounty. in Ireland, either in the sea, lake, orrrver.

Swimming is one of the healthiest of sports,and for this reason should commend itself tothe Garda. Jn addition it is a valuable artto acquire, as one never knows when it mightbe useful.

The competitions at Blackrock Baths onThursday, 23rd June, will, it is hoped, attractbumper entrancs and should show progressamongst the Garda. The swimming clubs inand near Dublin are very sympathetic towardsthe efforts to promote the sport in An Garda,and will do all they can to make the Galaa success. A really good Polo March, whichwill be a trial for an International Match thefollowing month, will be one of the tit-bits,while a Life-Saving Display by the pupils ofMountjoy School will also bc worth seeing.

WaIter Scott Medal for ValourDECORATION OF GUARD JOHN J. WARD.

The Scott Medal for 1926 will be presented onWednesday afternoon. 22nd June. to Guard John J.Ward (" E " District, Dublin MetropolitanDivision) ; Silver Medal to Guard FrancisO:Donoghue (Midleton, Co. Cork, E.R.); and aSliver Medal to Guard Charles Scul\y (" C .,District, Dublin Metronolttan Division).

ON the 23l'd March, 1926, at 6.23 p.m., twomen armed with revolvers entered thePost Office at. Kimmage, presented the

revolvers at the Assistant, a Miss May Ohle,who was alone at the time and ordered her tohand out the cash. The lady screamed, shoutedIor help, and the raiders, becoming apprehen-sive of assistance arriving, decamped.. The Postmistress telephoned the Garda Sta-

tion at Terenure, and all the available men inthe District were turned Out to look for thecu lprits. Guard Ward, who was off duty,came into the Station at the time and volun-teered to assist in the search. With this objectIn view he procured a bicycle and set out inplain clothes, unarmed and searched the ro'adsin the vicinity. The Guard was supplied witha description of the wanted men.

While he was cycling along the Canal Bankfrom Harold's Cross Bridge towards ParnellBridge he saw two men coming cowards himwhom he considered answered the descriptionof the raiders. His suspicions were furtheraroused by seeing that each had theirright hand in their pocket and he believedthey were armed, Guard ~Vard cycled pastthem, then dismounted and called on them tohalt. Both stopped and faced the Guard andimmediately drew revolvers from their pocketsand fired almost simultaneously at him. Whenthe Guard saw the revolvers he turned hisside to the men. He was then about eightyards away and heard the noise of the bulletswhizzing past. After these shots, which provi-dentially missed him, the Guard kept shiftinghis position in order not to present an easytarget for other shots.

The two criminals, who up to this had been(ogether, then separated, and one of them puthis revolver at full cock and shouted to theGuard: "Put your hands up, you black-guard." Ward refused and moved towardsthem, and the man who had ordered him toput up his hands fired at him. The Guard,although he did not notice it at the time.believes that this bullet hit his overcoat andpassed between his legs, as a subsequent exa-mination revealed a bullet hole in the rightflap of his coat.

Both men (hell ran away. pursued by theGnard towards Harold's Cross Bridge. andwhen near the Bridge they both turned andfired again, Then they continued on under-

neath the Bridge and Harold's Cross Road.Guard Ward cycled across the Bridge andcaught sight of them emerging from under-neath the Bridge and running into a lanewayoff the Canal Bank .

\Vhile crossing the roadway Guard Wardsaw. Guard Michael North, 11550, RathmioesStation, commg along and shouted to himwhat had happened. This Guard who was offduty in plain clothes and unarrued, joined hiscomrade Jn the chase. .

The Guards then followed the robbers intothe laneway mentioned above and saw one ofthe men in the act of throwing his overcoatover the wall adjoining the laneway and con-timie to run. Guard North stopped and pickedup the coat, buc Guard Ward continued onand captured his man, but the other man waslost sight of. 'I'he prisoner was handed overto a party of detectives who had arrived onthe scene, and the search for the second manwas continued, but he was not arrested at thetime.

The revolver which was in the possession ofthe man arrested by Guard Ward 'was foundnear the overcoat which he had thrown away,and he was, therefore, unarmed when actuallyarrested by the Guard, who was not, however,aware of that fact, as he believed when hegrappled with his prisoner that he had thersvo lver in his possession.

Guard Ward, during the whole of the hap-penings leading up to the arrest of the crim-inal. displayed courage and heroism of thevery highest order. Although repeatedlv firedat and narrowly escaping serious rnj ury ordeath, he continued his pursuit and eventuallysecured his man. At the finish of the sternchase, he without hesitation, grappled with therobber, although he believed he was still inpossession of his revolver and prepared to useit. Guard Ward's courage and devotion toduty cannot be too highly praised. .

The other mall who was concerned in theoccurrence was arrested a few days later, andboth of them were sentenced to 21 months'hard labour at the Dublin Circuit Court inApril, 1926.

On the IOth November, 1926, at 7.45 p.m.,a telephone message was received from Carrig-twohill Station to the effect that a motor carhad passed through Carrigt,Yohill in the direc-tion of. Midleton at an excessive speed, and itwas believed to be conveying a party of Irre-gulars.

about 500 yards distant Irom the bridaewould be closed as the Cork train was d~e:and they lost no time in pursuing the car Oilfoot, and they en me up with it as it turnedto retrace its route towards Midleton on find-ing the road barred.

Guard O'Donoghue again called on thedriver eo halt, and again the order was igllored,the occupants apparently having decided to takeno notice of the unarmed Guards and wereputting on speed to again proce~d on theirjourney.

Guard O'Donoghue then jumped Oil therunning board and caught the drivinsr wheeland again ordered to driver to halt. ~One ofthe occupants Oil the front seat caught theGuard by the throat and endeavoured eo pushhim off the car. The Guard, however, sue-cceded in shaking off the grip and turned thesteering wheel with the object of running thecar into a wall. The occupants then squealed• c Don't kill us." The car was travelling atabout 20 miles per hour, and the Guard thenseized and applied the hand-brakes. After astruggle the car was eventually 'stopped.

Detective Officer Lynch, who had alightedfrom the Cork train. heard thc commotion andhurried to the scene and helped GuardO'Donoghue, who had placed the occupants ofthe car under arrest, to escort them to theStation.

Examination of thc car showed that therewas no licence card displayed and a searchrevealed a fully-loaded Webley revolver underthe front seat and nine rounds of revolverammunition under the back seat. In addition,a quantity of treasonable documents were dis-covered. The occupants of the car. .IosephKielty, Derrnot Kielty, Jeremiah Graley andLiam Doherty, all of Cobh, were identified asbeing members of the Irregular Battalion Staff,and it was subsequently ascertained that theywere proceeding to a Battalion Council Meet-ing, which had been called, apparently, withthe object of organising the raids on GardaStations which took place on the followingSunday. These raids resulted in the murderof two members of the Garda, Sergeant Fitz-si mons and Guard Ward.

Guard O'Donoghue acted with great promp-titude and displayed great courage and devo-tion to duty in stopping the motor car single-handed and securing the arrest of the occu-pan ts. Although severelv assaulted, he re-mained on the running board of the car andcventua.lly succeeded in stopping it. TheGuard "vas quite aware of che risk he wasrunning, and although the occupants did notuse the arms they had in the car, it is highlv .probable that they would have done so ifthe Guard, by his action in steering the carinto a \\'!Lll, had not taken thern completelyby surprise. The action of the members oftho Trregula.r organization on the ensuing~u"day in murdering two members of theCarda Siothchana shows that the use of fire-arms against unarmed members of the Gardawas not contrarv to the policy of (hat orrrani-zation.

:)1LVER MEDAL.On the 2(jth June, 1926, at 9.50 p.in., a mall,

whose name was subsequently ascertained tobe William Cooney, and who resided at 17 Pre-bend Street, Dublin, entered the dairy shop,62 North Clarence Street, Dublin, the propertyof M1'. Thomas Hanley, who was behind thecounter at the time. He requested to be sup-plied. with some sweets, and then suddenly,dJ~awll1g a revol vel' Irorn his pocket, said:. Un<e me your money or I will shoot you."

1\11'. Ha.nley shouted for help, and at thesame tirne struck the revolver which wentoff, the shot narrowly missing l~illl.

Cooney then became alarmed and rushedout of the shop, followed by Mr. Hanley, whorelated what had occurred to a number of menwho were standing at the corner of NorthClarence Street. The men started to pursue,the raider, and they were joined by GuardScully, who was on duty in the vicinity .

The Guard and a civilian named Mr. .IohnLong easily out-distanced the others and keep-ing Cooney in sight, quickly clos~d in uponhim. Cooney ran along North Strand RoadKillarney Street, Lower Buckingham Street:and Railway Street, entering a cul-de-sac offthe last-named street. Finding himself cor-nered, he at once turned at bay, and pointedthe revolver at the Guard, who was about fiveyards away and well in front of Mr. Long,who had also con tin ued the chase.

The Guard immediately rushed at Cooney "an.d seized the revolver. In the struggle a shotwas fired which narrowly missed the Guard,who successfully disarmed the robber and tookhim into custody. Mr. Long had by this timearrived on the scene, and he gave the Guardevery assistance in bringing the prisoner tothe Station .

The Guard had pursued his prisoner a dis-tance of fully 440 yards and arrested himsingle-handed and, beyond helping him toconvey the prisoner to tne Station, Mr. Longgave no assistance ill the actual struggle. TheGuard was L1J1al111eclduring the wholr, occur-rence. The revolver which was in the posses-sion of the prisoner was a six-chambered oneand tWO cartridges had been discharged.

Cooney was subsequently charged with theattempted armed robbery and attempted mur-der of M1'. Hanley and also with che attemptedmurder of Cuard Scul ly. He was sentencedto nine months' imprisonment bv Mr . .JusticeHanna at (he Central Criminal COlII't, Dublin,on the 14th July, 1926.

At the hearing of the case the learned Judgeand Mr. Carrigan. State Counsel. highly com-mended the Guard for his courage and devo-tion to duty.

Guard Scully ill this case displayed braveryof the very highest order. !le knew that therobber was armed ancl had already dischargedone shot at the proprietor of the shop he hadendeavoured to rob, yet without hesitation,and regardless of the consequences to himself.he grappled with the miscreant. who pointedthe revolver at him, and secured his arrest.

The history of Tug-of-War i-i Ireland ismainly identified with 'the famous old DublinMetropolitan Police team, of which the pre-sent champions may proudly' claim to be thedescendants.

The old D.M.P. team won their first laurelsat this strenuous game as far back as the earlyseventies of the last century, when they metand defeated a champion team of the BritishArmy at the Ballsbridge Show Grou-nds. Thiswas the first time the Dublin public weretreated to tug-of-war, and one at least of thevictors of that memorable contest can vouchfor the accuracy of this statement.

Ever since that period [the old Force wasclosely associated with the game, Lilt not until1892 .and 18!J3 did they gain universal noto-riety, when in the latter year they wrested theworld's championship from the famous ScotsGreys at the Ballsbridge enclosure, and later

in the same year once more proved theirsuperiority, this 'time over the Glasgow Policechampions,

They held an unbeaten record in Gn'eat'Britain and Ireland from 1892' to 1896, and in'a challenge contest in this year they suffereddefeat at the hands of the Belfast RLe., butthe decision was decisively reversed when theteams next met,

After this period few important events tookplace, and tug-of-war in police circles practicallyresolved itself into inter-divisional contests;bUlt in 1906 the gates were again thrown openfor Irish championship honours, and theD.M.P. again came into the limelight, andsecured first place from six prominent teamsat Ballsbridge on the August Bank Holiday ofthat year. At the same venue in August, 1908,they defeated a crack team of Liverpool Police,who aspired to the championship of the worldat London a fortnight previously.

TUG-OF-vVAH-(ContinHed).

From this to 1923 tug-of-war in Ireland wasat a very low ebb, but at this stage it EX-perienced another revival, and an absolutelynew team 'won the Irish Championship atCroke Park. Whi le this victorv "as still freshin the public mind, the team o-ice again attainedworld prominence by their magnificent victoryat 'Wembley Stadium on the 3rd :\[ay, 1924.At this venue the Irish combination won a'ilver Challenge Cup value 100 guineas from

thirteen teams, representing the cream ofGreat Britain and Ireland.

This was the beginning of a new era Intug-of-war circles, and the representatives ofthe Metropolitan, Division never suffered defeatdllring th'e year, though entering into corn-petitions against forty-three teams, and dispos-ing of such doughty and formidable opponentsas the Liverpool Police at ,'he!boul'l1e Park Of'}

St. James's Galte, I atheniska, theMoat of Ardscull, and Cork Asylum at the'I'ailteann Games in August ; LondonderryPolice, Newtownards Police, and EnniskillenPolice at Fermanagh Agricultural Show inSeptember. The 'trophies for the year amountedto eleven silver cups and forty-four goldmedals.

They renewed their activities in 1925 bydefeating the Kilkenny Garda at LansdovwieRoad on 18th July, and «n the 8th August atBelfast they won International honours by de-feating eight teams representing Eo'1glancl,Ireland and Scotland. At the Garda Sports,held at Drogheda, they secured victory fromfour prominent teams, and won the MayoralCup. At the Agricultural Show in :Uonaghanin September they defeated thc .RU.C., Enmis-killen, and a fEW days laiter at Cavan theyinscribed their names on a silver challenge cup.At the Garda Sports at Limerick and Galwayduring the same month they added fresh laurelsto their victories, and brought a uccessful yearto a close, winning four challenge CliPS,a shield,and ixty gold medals.

The team is undergoing an intensive courseof training, and expects to bc well up to itsformer standard during Garda Week.

The most notable victory 0'£ the Tug-of-Warteam was at the Jntennational Tournamentheld at Glasgow', the Garda emerging victorsin a series of exciting contests, too well knownin the public mind to here need repetition.

I==BO=XING======:!J!

TH]!; origin and progress of the Garda Box-ing '!.'aam is well known to every follower

of the sport in Ireland, through the medium ofthe Press, which has given wide and well-merited publicity eo the team since they startedout to win honours for the Force.

The team, individually and collectively, hascontinued to' maintain during the past seasonthe high standard of efficiency and consequentseries of successes which has characterized theirefforts in the ring since the inception of thec , noble art" in the Garda Siothchana.

Since last year's Aonach, when the Gardateam gained a decisive victory over the FrenchTeam, they have added the following successesto their credit :-In international contestsagainst the Liverpool Police, Scottish Police,Liverpool amateurs, and Welsh Police, theGarda Team was successful.

In addition, members of the Garda BoxingTeam took part in international contests againstGermany and Denmark with the following re-sults :-Garda Cooper won three contestsagainst the Danes and 2 against the Germans;Garda Chase won two contests against theGermans and 3 against the Danes; GardaDriscoll won three contests against the Danesand lost two against the Germans.

In the 1927 Irish Championships, the GardaTeam registered the following successes:-Garda M. Flanagan, in the absence- of GardaDriscoll (holder of the title) annexed the IrishHeavy-Weight Championship; Garda J.Murphy, won the Cruiser-Weight Champion-ship, and Garda J. Chase successfully defendedhis title of Irish Middle-Weight Champion.Garda F. Cooper was somewhat unlucky in notgaining the v.erdict in the final of the Welter-Weight contest. Altogether this programmewas a splendid exhibition of skill and sports-manship, and the results of the various con-tests reflected great credit on the individual

members of the Garda 'I'eaui, who were facedwith a tough proposition in forging their waythrough to the finals and eventually capturingthese much-coveted distinctions.

III the British Police Championships sevenmembers of the Garda Team took part and suc-ceeded in annexing three of them, as well asbeing runners-up in two other events. Inconnection with the latter championships, thePolice Chronicle Challenge Cup was won by

Garda Driscoll, and the Pearl man ChallengeCup by Garda Chase. Gardai Driscoll, Chaseand Cooper carried away the Championships inthe Heavy, Middle and Welter-Weight eventsrespectively, and Gardai Healy and Flanaganwere runners-up in the Middle and Heavy-Weight events.

WE reproduce above a photograph taken of the display given by the Depot Fin,Piquet during Aonach an Gharda last year. It may be of inte rest to the generalpublic to know that a special course JJ1 fire chill forms part. of every reoruit's

training while serving in the Depot, and every member of tho Force leaves the Depotfor duty in the country with a thorough and practical knowledge of fire-fighting. Thehost tribute that can be paid to the Garda in respect of ihe good work they havo donefh'·olfghout the country in successfully quclling serious outbreaks of fire is containedin the numerous letters of appreciation received by the Commissioner and public Pressfrom all parts of An Saorstat.

The Iacr that fire-fighting does not come within the scope of a policeman's ordinaryduty is in itself an eloquent tribute to the good work that has already been accomplishedby the Garda. In small rural districts where modern fire-figh cing appliances areunknown, the assistance rendered by the local Garda has many times prayed invaluahlr-.

First Aid the Injuredto

••••

PHOTO OF FIRST-~ID DISPLAY GIVEN DURING LAST YEAR'S AONACH.

THE modern Policeman, in addition to his ordinary routine of Police work, is expectedto be something of an adept at many other things, not the least of which is "FirstAid to the Injured and Ambulance Work."

The mechanical age, if it might be so cerrned, has brought in its train a great nnmberof accidents, often resulting in serious injury to the people involved in them.

In cities and large towns where medical attention can be procured without I delay,it is seldom, indeed, that the injury to the injured person is enhanced by any neglector delay in rendering assistance. However, when serious accidems occur in rural areaswhere such attention is not available, it may, and often does, fall to the lot of theGarda in such areas to afford the necessary relief to the sufferer.

In order that the Gardai 'mav satisfactorily perform this important branch of theirwork, they are taught at the Depot the rudiments of bandaging, and the necessarytreatment of cases of fracture, hsomorrhage, drowning, suffocation, etc., and the variousmethods of improvising and preparing stretchers for the conveyance of the injured.

The skill brought to bear by the Gardai in treating such cases as above has fromtime to time aroused much favourable comment from the public in general.

It is indeed fitting that the Gardai, who have entered so fully into the lives of thepeople with whom their duty brings them in contacr should be able to render immediateand beneficial assistance to any injured person when the necessity arises.

The Gardai have always been well to the fore when any humane work is on hand.and in the good work of Aiding the Injured they may well be relied upon to give oftheir best '
